California Police Need Your Help Finding Men Who Gang-Raped Lesbian
Police are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of four men who allegedly kidnapped and gang-raped for nearly an hour a 28-year-old Richmond woman, who was left naked when they fled in her car. The crime, which occurred on Dec. 13, is being investigated as a hate crime because of comments the suspects made about the victim’s sexual orientation, police said. The woman is openly lesbian and had a rainbow sticker on her license plate, a symbol of gay pride.
Police described the first suspect, believed to be the group leader, as a Latino man in his 30s, who stands 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighs 180 pounds, and has black hair, brown eyes and a mustache.
The second suspect is described as an African American man in his early 20s, about 5 feet 10 inches, 170 pounds with black hair and brown eyes. He is known by the nickname “Blu,” police said.
The third suspect is described as Latino, 18 to 20 years old, who is nicknamed “Pato.” The fourth suspect is described only as a Latino man 18 to 20 years old. Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Ysenia Rogers at (510) 672-1718. [SFGate]

Homophobic California minorities raping a Lesbian. Why does that sound familiar?
·
The city is over 60% African-American and Latino. Your insinuation is dumb.
·
So are some gay men if Micheal’s above comment is any indicator.
·
God, that poor girl. I can’t even imagine if that had been me. You know…the biggest homophobes call us abominations…but how in God’s name is an act of such violence like this not an abomination? It makes me sick that people would even consider doing this to another person, regardless of who they are…
I’m becoming more and more discouraged with the number of stories I read each day about gay-related violence and more angry at the fact that pro-prop 8 people claim homosexuals have been violent in their protests when I have not seen ONE story of such violence from homosexuals that equals hate crimes against gays. What did we ever do to them than just ask to be respected?
·
my heart goes out to the young woman, I’m also a rape survivor.
My first thought is I’d hope the lesbian community finds these animals before the cops, they would NEVER rape anyone AGAIN.
·
@Michael W.: Don’t blame Prop 8 You were a racist before and you know It. Do think it helps the cause to alieanate the other people of color who voted No on Prop 8?
·
@mark:
Agreed. My head tells me to continue to be a peaceful person, but my heart would just love for some dykes on bikes to drag these fuckers around behind their Harleys until they’re covered in an inch of road rash.
·
This crime is the REAL abomination, not homosexuality. I hope these men are found and castrated – it’s the very least these animals deserve.
·
I feel so sorry for this woman, no one ever deserves this. I hope the assholes are found.
·
Hauslaib will try to say the Duke lacrosse guys did it.
·
@Me,
The operative word here is “slang” which is why Spanish people call gay men Pato which = fag. Puto is a whore, slut etc. So no, I did not mean that word but Thanks.
·
Since NSA is wiretapping virtually every gay and lesbian
person, ask them. They probably have the full video footage also.
·
LMAO….LOL…THIS IS FUNNY AS HELL….LOL…IT WOULD BE LIKE A BUNCH OF DUDES RAPING ANOTHER DUDE…..LOL…
·
No surprise this happened in Richmond.
When will we confront the homophobia in the African-American and Latino communities head-on?
·
Stop 3rd world immigration and send Latinos back where they can improve their own countries with their new skills and understanding of PC MC.
·
Ironic the 3rd one is called “Pato” which is a slang for fag in Spanish.
